When a number is multiplied by itself thrice, the resultant number is called the cube of a number. Cubing is used while comparing sizes of objects or things with cubic measurements. In this topic, we shall learn about the cube of 84.
A cube number is a value obtained by raising a number to the power of 3, or by multiplying the number by itself three times.
When you cube a positive number, the result is always positive.
When you cube a negative number, the result is always negative.
This is because a negative number multiplied by itself three times results in a negative number.
The cube of 84 can be written as 84³, which is the exponential form.
Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as, 84 × 84 × 84.
In order to check whether a number is a cube number or not, we can use the following three methods: multiplication method, a factor formula (a³), or by using a calculator. These three methods will help kids to cube the numbers faster and easier without feeling confused or stuck while evaluating the answers.
The multiplication method is a process in mathematics used to find the product of two numbers or quantities by combining them through repeated addition. It is a fundamental operation that forms the basis for more complex mathematical concepts.
Step 1: Write down the cube of the given number. 84³ = 84 × 84 × 84
Step 2: You get 592,704 as the answer.
Hence, the cube of 84 is 592,704.
The formula (a + b)³ is a binomial formula for finding the cube of a number. The formula is expanded as a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³.
Step 1: Split the number 84 into two parts, such as 80 and 4. Let a = 80 and b = 4, so a + b = 84
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term a³ = 80³ 3a²b = 3 × 80² × 4 3ab² = 3 × 80 × 4² b³ = 4³
Step 4: Add all the terms together: (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³ (80 + 4)³ = 80³ + 3 × 80² × 4 + 3 × 80 × 4² + 4³ 84³ = 512,000 + 76,800 + 3,840 + 64 84³ = 592,704
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 84 is 592,704.
To find the cube of 84 using a calculator, input the number 84 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 84 × 84 × 84. This operation calculates the value of 84³, resulting in 592,704. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.
Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.
Step 2: Press 8 followed by 4
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 84³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 84 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 592,704.
There are some typical errors that kids might make during the process of cubing a number. Let us take a look at five of the major mistakes that kids might make:
What is the cube and cube root of 84?
The cube of 84 is 592,704 and the cube root of 84 is approximately 4.396.
First, let’s find the cube of 84.
We know that the cube of a number, such that x³ = y
Where x is the given number, and y is the cubed value of that number
So, we get 84³ = 592,704 Next, we must find the cube root of 84
We know that the cube root of a number x, such that ³√x = y
Where x is the given number, and y is the cube root value of the number
So, we get ³√84 ≈ 4.396
Hence the cube of 84 is 592,704 and the cube root of 84 is approximately 4.396.
If the side length of the cube is 84 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 592,704 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³.
Substitute 84 for the side length: V = 84³ = 592,704 cm³.
How much larger is 84³ than 74³?
84³ – 74³ = 286,776.
First find the cube of 84³, which is 592,704
Next, find the cube of 74³, which is 305,928
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. 592,704 – 305,928 = 286,776
Therefore, the 84³ is 286,776 larger than 74³.
If a cube with a side length of 84 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 24 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?
The volume of the cube with a side length of 84 cm is 592,704 cm³
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 84 means multiplying 84 by itself three times: 84 × 84 = 7,056, and then 7,056 × 84 = 592,704.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³), because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 592,704 cm³.
Estimate the cube 83.9 using the cube 84.
The cube of 83.9 is approximately 592,704.
First, identify the cube of 84,
The cube of 84 is 84³ = 592,704. Since 83.9 is only a tiny bit less than 84, the cube of 83.9 will be almost the same as the cube of 84.
The cube of 83.9 is approximately 592,704 because the difference between 83.9 and 84 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 592,704.
